Having visited numerous care homes during the last few months, so that we could assess the various needs required for my brother, at long last, we have found the answer. CALDY MANOR.
As soon as we entered this beautiful building we felt such a relief. Invited to stay for a very nice lunch and a tour
of the rooms - each being individual and tastefully decorated - we were so impressed.
The staff are unbelievable. At all times checking the needs of the residents, making sure that they have everything they want or need, are happy and content/chatting/laughing/discussing/listening, or just sitting quietly, stroking a hand.
As we said to each other, "If you had to go into a care home, you would not choose anywhere else"
Would we recommend Caldy Manor? Indeed we would.

After a very disappointing experience with a care home, my daughter and I decided we needed to move my mother. We chose Caldy Manor and what an excellent choice that was.

We found no other home that gave the level of care and understood out father's requirements. The low level of staff turnover has been reflected in how staff treat our father and some have gone over and above in what could be injected to keep him happy and feel at home.

My husband's cousin is living at Caldy Manor for a few months with a view to making it her permanent home. She has been very well cared for and likes the staff very much. They are very caring and professional in everything they do.

Caldy have been excellent for my parents. The staff are both professional and very friendly, as a result my parents have always felt like this was their home. As they have aged, the management has always been on top of their situation and we have felt the medical situation has very comprehensive. As
a result we have never worried about their safety, health or wellbeing. The staff are very friendly and my parents are very settled, happy and content.

Genuine care and concern for the residents. Best interests come first, listens to the relatives. The care home feels like a home from home and not an institution. I feel confident my relatives are receiving the best care and gives me peace of mind knowing excellent care is being provided.

Caldy Manor Care Home is an excellent care home. The staff are exceptional. My mum and dad lived at Caldy for the last 2 years. My dad passed away last week and the staff could not have been more helpful and loving to my mum and the rest of the family. The Caldy Manor staff have become family to my
mum. I live in New Zealand and I know my mum is in the very best possible place. I would recommend Caldy Manor 110%!

I was impressed with the genuineness of the care and how deeply it was embedded in the culture. My impression was that this caring attitude was so strong it would survive a change at the senior leadership level. An example was the tenderness with which a carer held and stroked the hand of a very immobile
lady. Wow! It was not the only example of this kind. The compassion came shining through.

My brother and his wife were living in Yorkshire and they came to the Caldy Manor in April 2012. They had been living in their own home, with some help. My brother was diagnosed with dementia about 12months before they came to Caldy Manor.
My brother had had a fall and broken his hip, during the time
he was in hospital, his wife, my sister in law, stayed with us in Wirral. They only have one son, who lives in America, he requested I find them a care home in Wirral, for them to have the support of my family.
Caldy Manor, at present, is not as good as it was in 2012.

Reply from Patricia Rolwand, General Manager at Barchester Caldy Manor

I am very sorry that you felt the home did not meet your expectation. We take very seriously all the feedback we receive from the residents and their relatives/family.


As the New Manager I am addressing all areas of improvement to ensure resident needs and comfort is being met at all times.


Thank you for your response.

The care and nurturing both my parents receive is extraordinarily good.


They are treated with respect, (which is paramount) subjected to high levels of communication and guided when making choices. The activities stimulate them and keep them content.


A heartfelt thank you. We could not have found

anywhere better.

Caldy Manor, on the Wirral, is a warm and friendly place with excellent attentive staff. My mother has a lovely room overlooking beautiful gardens. She feels safe and well cared for with new friends made and activities to do. Her condition has improved since living at Caldy Manor these last 12 months
and I am pleased that she is no longer lonely and now more content. I can fully recommend Caldy Manor.

I have had a very restful week doing nothing! It has been a learning experience realising how selfless the staff are when dealing with all the residents and also I have learnt a lot about folk who can no longer cope on their own.

This was a very hard decision for us as a family and the staff at the home couldn't be more supportive to not only mum but us as a family. Mum found it hard to settle at first but the care of the staff helped her to settle in well.
It is a friendly, warm home and home is what it is for mum now. The
rooms are well kept and clean and very comfortable. We are happy with our decision.

Caldy Manor is set in peaceful surroundings with lovely gardens and a large terrace. The rooms are comfortable and the home has good facilities and a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The staff are kind, considerate and caring and I am very happy with the choice we have made for my father who needs
care as he is now quite frail.

When I came here after having a hip replacement operation I was in so much pain, but the staff were all so kind to me. Nothing was too much trouble. I would absolutely recommend Caldy Manor without hesitation.

I am very pleased with the care for my mother (91) and my father (95). They share a room and every provision has been made for them. The staff are friendly and professional. They are treated with respect and patience. No problem is too much and they get excellent care. The manager is always available
and have been so helpful with the financial aspect of their care. I am delighted and relieved they are at Barchester Caldy Manor.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.597)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.597) out of 10 for Barchester Caldy Manor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 7 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.976 for Barchester Caldy Manor is calculated as follows: ( (80 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 82 Ratings = 4.976

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 4.621 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Caldy Manor is based on 7 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 3.7

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 38 registered maximum number of service users is 7.6. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.6 = 0.921

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
